All invited to meet Nomi Klein, hobnob with the local gentry, and share a toast to local creativity.
Nomi Klein’s Bio
Nomi grew up immersed in the sweet-scented scenery of orange groves and the rackety rambles of farm workshops filled with industrial machinery. These two dichotic forces; flowing, colorful nature and the cool precision of machines have been key sources of her inspiration.
Nomi was born in Israel and grew up immersed on a Kibbutz. As a young teen she
learned technical machine design and served in the Israeli army in that field. She
studied oil painting, window design and sculpture at Bezalel Academy of Art & Design in Jerusalem.
In the late ‘70s, Nomi moved with her family to New York City. There she studied ceramics, casting and molding at the Parson School of Design. She was awarded a merit scholarship at the Art Students League and exhibited her work extensively in Soho galleries.
Nomi experiments with different material and media; transforming everyday objects into art. She applies wood-cracking technique to a canvas by which she creates a unique mixed-medium affect of cloth-cracking with paint layers. Her wooden window design pieces in which she combines discarded window frames with traditional art, blur the viewer’s blur the viewer’s perspective of indoor and outdoor spaces. For Nomi, art is a holistic experience. Opportunities are all around, waiting to be expressed.
